On this episode of the podcast, I spoke with Marc and Angel Chernoff. Marc and Angel are the authors of the new book Getting Back To Happy: Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Reality and Turn Your Trials Into Triumphs. We spoke about happiness, overcoming adversity and the role rituals play in our happiness. We also did a self-inquiry session which I found very insightful. It was a great conversation, I hope you enjoy it too.

Here are a few highlights from the show:

We are what we do on a daily basis

The importance of rituals as a way to move forward

Why rituals are a solid foundation for mindfulness and other tools

How Marc and Angel work together

The power of self-inquiry by journaling on the most stressful experiences

Our thoughts and the way we think are the stories we tell ourselves

98% of the time, the problem is not the problem, it is something deeper

Recording your thoughts, then reviewing them to bring awareness

Whatever you’re seeing is an interpretation of what you’re thinking

Ways to have lasting benefits such as visual reminders and accountability

Accountability using your own questions and having someone read them to you
